Contingency analysis of power system

Abstract

Contingency analysis is a well known function in modern Energy Management Systems (EMS). The goal of this power system analysis function is to give the operator information about the static security [4]. Contingency Analysis of a power system is a major activity in power system planning and operation. In general an outage of one transmission line or transformer may lead to over loads in other branches and/or sudden system voltage rise or drop. Contingency analysis is used to calculate violations. This paper shows the example on 6 bus power system which gives information of violations & remedial action to remove violations. Detailed studies have been carried out to work out the contingency plans.
